Linear Shooters - How did you do it?

My team experimented with a Pneumatic Piston Shooter similar to that of Simbotics but we barely got the ball to clear a 20cm (~8") barrier, let alone the overpass from 2-3 meters away....

How did simbotics or any other similar team make it effective?
(Was it even pneumatic?)

<edit>
Just noticed that Simbotics was not pneumatic - but how did it work?
did anyone manage a linear shooter with pneumatics?
</edit>


just curios...
